The aio changes have either been reviewed negatively or not at all.  That 
tree should be dropped.

That isn't solely your decision.  If you have comments, please provide 
constructive feedback, as there are users and use-cases that need this 
kind of functionality.

Nothing should be a "sole decision".  But you have patches that stomp
all over areas outside your maintainership, and even those in there
aren't reviewed.  This does not fit the Linux-next criteria.
